On November 7, Hudson Institute hosted Emily Haber, Ambassador of Germany to the United States, for a discussion about the current state of U.S.-German relations. The conversation was moderated by Walter Russell Mead, the Ravenel B. Curry Distinguished Fellow in Strategy and Statesmanship at Hudson Institute.
The evolving U.S.-German relationship is facing new challenges. While Germany is a critical transatlantic ally, recently the two nations’ leaders have differed publicly on issues ranging from defense spending to trade and Russia. However, as vital trade partners and geopolitical allies, common ground and shared aims continue to unite the two nations.
